“For you are
a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all
the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured
possession”
Deut. 7:6
“Our Mission is to
convey God’s Love…
not a dead God, but a
living God, a God of Love!”
Mother Teresa
To Be a LIGHT in the Darkness, to go
from discouraged to being ENCOURAGED… we must understand that we are God’s
Masterpiece! Eph. 2:10
The reason
you have value is because of what God says about you, not because of what other
people say about you.
If God
wanted you to be somebody else, you wouldn’t exist. But he wanted you! He made
you to be you. Real self-esteem comes from three facts:
God created you.
Jesus died for you.
God’s Spirit lives in you.
The Greek
word for “masterpiece” is “poema.” It’s the word we get “poem” from. God says,
“You’re my poem. You’re my masterpiece. I don’t want you copying somebody else.
I’ve put gifts in you — heart, abilities, personality, and experiences — and I
want you to use them.” You have worth because of what God says about you and
has done for you.
You’re not
just wanted; you’re needed!
1 Corinthians 12:4-6 Every person is gifted
by God to DO Amazing things!
You have value because God said
so!
Because he paid such a large
ransom for your life when he sent his Son,
Jesus, to die on the cross for you.
